Mirror Name Project

My Mirror Name Project uses a variety of different styles and designs. I did many different things to represent value such as, stippling, cross hatching and shading. I used a combination o both some simple designs, such as the circles and the swirls, but also some more difficult thing such as the splatter effect and the fire type effect. I used different lines too, thick to thin, short to long, dark to light,  straight to curved, and solid to broken. A lot of the things i drew I like drawing and draw quite frequently on my own time. At first I was going to try and make it into a animal of some sort, but abandoned hat as I continued to notice it was going to be too much of a challenge, overall, i think it looks really well, and I'm happy with it.

Space

     

         Space is the element of art that refers to the emptiness or area between, above, around, below or within objects.

• Space refers to both outer space and inner space.
• Space can be flat, two-dimensional or three-dimensional
• Shapes and forms exist in space
• All objects take up space
• Shapes and forms are defined by space around and within them. They depend on space for their existence
• In both 3D and 2D art, the shapes or forms are called he positive space or the figure
• The empty spaces between shapes of forms are called negative spaces or ground
• Large negative spaces around positive spaces may express loneliness or freedom
• crowded positive spaces express tension and togetherness
• Sometimes it's not easy to tell which are negative spaces and which are positive spaces, This is because the artist gives equal emphasis to both figure and ground
• Artists sometimes confuse the viewer
• over,under,through,behind and around describe 3D space
• You can walk around, look through, look behind, peer over, and each into 3D art
